A small quantity of water can remain in the dispenser. It is advisable to carry the dispenser in an upright position.

3.Wash the dispenser using running water.

You can also remove the siphon caps in the dispenser for cleaning.

4.Replace the siphon caps in the dispenser (if removed). Make sure that they lock in place.

5.Replace the dispenser by locating the bottom tabs in the lid holes and pivot until both of the upper buttons lock.

Note: ensure that the detergent dispenser is correctly reinstalled.

Water inlet hose

Check the inlet hose regularly for brittleness and cracks and replace it if necessary using a new hose of the same type. The inlet hose as shown on picture “A” has a safety valve to prevent the appliance against uncontrolled water inlet; if the safety valve inspection window is red, the safety valve has been activated and the hose must be exchanged. Contact out After- Sales Service or your specialist dealer to obtain a new inlet hose. If your inlet hose has a transparent hose coating (fig. “B”), periodically check the colour of the transparent coating. If the coating begins to turn red, this is an indication that the hose may have a leak and should be replaced. Contact our After-Sales Service team or specialist dealer to obtain a replacement hose.
